i want to thank supervisor yee and mar for holding this hearing and concern to many residents city wide. as we heard from the department of public health about three people a day are hit by cars in san francisco and as we also heard from the city's traffic engineer at mta residents in district 7 bear a disproportionate burden of the injury. more people are killed by cars in district 7 and there is more speeding and as we heard that is closely related. on slope on 19th boulevard, on ocean, on monterey we need to fix our streets to tame speeds, calm traffic and prevent more tragedies like we heard that have happened to the student and the retired teacher that was killed on westportal recently. next friday as it happens is walk to workday and i know you're participating and thank you. my understanding is that the mayor will be releasing a new plan for action on pedestrian safety, and that will target the city's most dangerous streets to cut serious and fatal injurys in half. this is a critical action to take. we call on you as the board of the transportation authority to make sure that thi

but because of the curve line on --el camino and del mar. that could never be parallel to the front of the lot. as a technical matter, this section doesn't really apply and the way the rear yard is calculated is discretionary. and it's discretionary the department should apply the rear yard calculation in the way that best fulfills the policy code and the residential design guidelines. a two story structure completely occupying a rear yard cannot comply with residential design guidelines. that's what we have in this instance. we have a 2 story garage structure that is going to be expanded which violates this policy. so that the non-compliant uses expands to occupy more of the lot at different levels is an interpretation which i think flies in the face of discretionary measurement of the rear yard and if you look at the second page of our exhibit, 8, if you imply the interpretation you have 2 different ways you can configure this rear yard so that the goals of requiring some open space on this lot are met. and that rear yard can go down to th
